SPA: Smart Parking Algorithm Based on Driver Behavior and Parking Traffic Predictions

MADM-based smart parking guidance algorithm

In smart parking environments, how to choose suitable parking facilities with various attributes to satisfy certain criteria is an important decision issue. Based on the multiple attributes decision making (MADM) theory, this study proposed a smart parking guidance algorithm by considering three representative decision factors (i.e., walk duration, parking fee, and the number of vacant parking ...

Traffic and Parking

Street and highway traffic park ing have long been recognized as a m ajor problem of cities and towns th roughou t the nation . In m any com ­ m unities it is the num ber one headache. Inadequate handling of this problem has resulted in b lighted areas, decen tralization , and decreasing of property values. Every com m unity in the nation regularly experiences a huge econom ic loss from traffic...

New "Smart Parking" System Based on Resource Allocation and Reservations

We propose a novel “smart parking” system for an urban environment. The system assigns and reserves an optimal parking space based on the driver’s cost function that combines proximity to destination and parking cost. Our approach solves a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) problem at each decision point defined in a time-driven sequence. The solution of each MILP is an optimal allocation ...
